We are sad to read this review, as our only intention is to put our customers interests first and sometimes that means above our own. Our Service Manager spoke with this customer on the phone after the service and explained to him about MINI conditioned base service. He did not seem to know this CBS maintenance concept and we offered to show him how it works and what information is displayed and what MINI recommends for maintenance intervals. The intervals are set by the manufacturer, and we follow those recommendations. We never try to deny customer their requested service but we do inform them that their MINI may not need a service yet as shown on their CBS data. The service may be an out-of-pocket expense which most customers then decline. we explained to the customer that MINI does not recommend a coolant flush under any CBS data and that the fluid does not carry a flush interval per this maintenance data. We would only be performing a drain and fill of the system as MINI has not provided or recommended a flush machine that would be suitable for our coolant systems. I informed the customer that we would rather not open the system and introduce new coolant if we cannot replace all the old coolant. If we are repairing a failed component, this repair would then require coolant replacement per a MINI repair procedure. We base our maintenance on the condition-based service intervals that MINI recommends. The vehicle has 30k miles on it and I would not recommend flushing the coolant anyway. It is a longlife coolant and exchanging it would only compromise that longlife coolant. We inform customers of what MINI recommends as the best maintenance practices for their vehicle. They are welcome to do as they wish. The vehicle is in the husband's name which is why our cashier asked for him and not her. We have several procedures in place when a vehicle is completed through service and have not have issues with said procedures. I think he is grasping for straws on this one. We have a great track record of being up front and honest with our customers with very high review scores and 3x MINI Center of Excellence awards, 2022, 2023 and 2024. We hope we can work this out. If he would like to discuss further, he may contact our Service Manager, Scott Thompson, at 314-644-6464.
